Detroit Diesel 6V92TA Posted December 22, 2018 Report Share Posted December 22, 2018 Here was the Proterra demo that was leased to SamTrans. I took the photos of it white on 9/22/18. I took the pics of it in the SamTrans wrap on 11/3/18. I did get inside on both days with my friends (they work at SamTrans), but I did not take any interior photos for some reason. I did ride it on 11/3/18 and I got an interior video, but that was it. This bus is no longer there, but 2 SamTrans units have already arrived. I have so much footage of stuff now that I be forgetting to post stuff like this. lol Took these pics on 12/2/18 of the first 2 of 10 SamTrans Proterras. The leased demo is gone. I could not look inside these units unlike the demo since these two were locked; (friend at SamTrans couldn't get in). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detroit Diesel 6V92TA Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 I got to check out the XD60 800 at Northbase the other day since my friend at SamTrans was giving my other friend a short tour of the yard. It was in the garage and dark, so the pics did not come out too well, but oh well. (6/2/19) . SamTrans Proterras 725 & 726 at Northbase. Everyone here calls them Potatoes. They've been having many many problems lately and cannot last a full day in service without an issue. (6/2/19) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orion6025 Posted August 4, 2019 Report Share Posted August 4, 2019 Surprised i didn’t see this announced here yet: the xd60s are supposed to enter service later this month. No more NABIs once all are in service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say, the solid black door panels look sharp. Intuitively, I'd think that feature might be ugly -- yet it somehow makes the bus appear like an exotic European import. Remind us, how many on order? Any projection for assignments between the two samTrans bases and the contractor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MV Transportation may be the Contractor for some of these buses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob's Transport Hub Posted October 15, 2019 Report Share Posted October 15, 2019 SamTrans 800 on Route FCX (Taken 9/17/2019) I actually got to ride 805 yesterday (10/14/19) on the ECR, and I have to say that these XD60s are a huge improvement from the NABIs In my opinion. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detroit Diesel 6V92TA Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 On 9/29/2019 at 3:43 PM, Detroit Diesel 6V92TA said: I've been informed NABI's 145-148 at MV are finished (pretty much retired) and will be returning to North Base for decommissioning at some point. My friend was the last to drive 145. Pretty sad because 148 was the first NABI 436 I rode. 145-147 were also fun rides as well. I've been informed by another source this is no longer valid. I also filmed 145 driving on the 292 the other day. Also, when they do return to Northbase, they may be used in service a little while longer.

Border City Transit Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 The New Flyers are nice, but I'll miss the no-frills solidness of the 436 artics. They were beautiful in their utilitarianism, as captured in this close-up headshot circa 2015. I vividly remember snapping that photo and declaring aloud, "ugly fab". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
